Friend,

In first plance you should not have put ITIN in place of SSN. If you already have put ITIN in place of SSN, don\'t worry. When your wife gets SSN, ITIN will be replaced by SSN and for that you will have to call Federal Agency. As far as your I-485 is concerned, I think INS only asks for SSN, so that upon approval they can give your SSN to IRS and let them know of your status change.

Do not worry and if your wife can get SSN, go for it.Make sure you do call Federal Agency after you receive SSN so that they can update their records.

If your wife has EAD then why would she get SSN with not allowed to work on it as a note? Just curious.

I hope this helps.
